Greetings,
I would like to throw in my opinions which myself and my wingmates share over the last few months.
Due to changes in the game we have found a few issues that have impacted our gameplay and our enjoyment of this great game.
We all love ED, and we really love the detail and direction its going in and we are always excited to see whats next.
However, there are some points that we would hope could get some additional attention.
We play as a private group exclusively.
WINGS ARE NO LONGER USEFUL
We often enter RES sites as a wing and attempt to get some bounty credits. All sites now have the potential to have cops in them, which is usually ok if it weren't for the increase risk of mistakes and misfire. With the new AI, we are more engaged in combat (good!), but also increases misfires and it only takes one shot for the cops to turn on your entire wing.
COPS NEED TO BE MORE FORGIVING TO FIRE
Normally targets are scanned with or without a kill warrent scanner so we can determine if they are WANTED. A misfire triggers the cops and you are engaged immediately (which I can understand), immediately after my scan finishes the target is indeed WANTED, YET THE COPS CONTINUE TO ATTACK. Why?
COPS NEED TO STOP SHOOTING WHEN A WANTED TARGET IS FULLY SCANNED
When in a wing, the only benefit is faster kills. However, if you follow the cops around you really dont need a wing at all (thats good), however if anyone in your wing makes any mistakes the ENTIRE wing is targeted (ok fine, but see issues above). The ONLY benefit of a wing is shared bounties and potentially faster kills (as long as the cops dont blow you up first). This has not proved beneficial in our last three outings and has shown that the new system is unproductive and has made us consider not forming a wing at all.
BETTER NETCODE
Also, we get multiple disconnects from wing which never occur when solo. This has been an issue since beta, although we can work around this by spending 30min to 1 hr trying to login/logout warp places ...dock...in an attempt to get the servers to behave...we waste time.
TL
R
* Fix Cops so they take more shots before turning on an entire wing
* Make Wings more beneficial
* Fix netcode so wings dont get disconnected every hour
* Make Cops smarter and allow them to forgive when WANTED targets are finally scanned properly.
I wont get started on horizon missions.
